Off center steering wheel on 507

I have put 12000 km on my 2015 C 63 edition 507. last time I finished my alignment i found that my steering wheel is somewhat off center to the right. Then i bring the car back to dealership again and let them solve the problem, however when i got the car back i found nothing changed and it is still off center to the right. does anyone experienced anything like this, and what can i do now?

If you paid them to fix your alignment, take it back to them until they get it steering wheel and alignment is fixed. If it was warranty work, take it to another dealership.

The steering wheel can be, and should be, centered by adjusting the front tie rods which control the toe in or out on the front wheels. That should be part of the alignment job and should involve nothing more than a half turn out on one side and half turn in on the other to straighten it up.

The best alignment techs - like mine - will ask you to take a drive, come back and show them how exactly much the steering wheel is off center. They will adjust the tie rods and nail the wheel centering. If your tech can't do that then you need to find one that can.
